De euro disco is terug! De Londense DJ en producer Majestic lanceert de classic’Rasputin’ en met wie anders dan Boney M? In 1978 had deze Duitse disco groep er een wereldwijd succes mee. “After constantly coming across the Boney M classic ‘Rasputin’ on TikTok I thought to myself that due to its incredible disco roots and instrumentation it could lend itself to become an amazing piece of modern dance music!” zegt Majestic over de release. “Some of favourite house records of all time are those that have used samples of classic disco records …. think Armand Van Helden – You don’t even know me (sampling the Carrie Lucas 1979 classic Dance with you) or Stardust’s – Music Sounds Better (sampling the legendary Chaka Khan – Fate).
Hij vervolgt: “For me I felt there was something in the original that would lend itself perfectly to a modern day twist and that coupled with the viral nature of the original it felt like a perfect melting pot! Now I am sat with a record with Boney M… who let’s face it are truly iconic.”
